So far, the toffee crisp choc-ices are made and in the freezer and now onto the sausage, black pudding and walnut sausage roll mix! Will be watching our family favourite Christmas movie - Arthur Christmas later with a Christmas Eve curry! its helpful that I can finally put a little weight on my right foot but hopping around the kitchen is not ideal 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, between the 1982 EC Final and the 1994 LC Final, it's a bit of a Villa black hole for me, with only a cursory check on the Saturday results and the occasional MOTD.

bickster Posted December 24, 2021 Moderator Share Posted December 24, 2021 A hell, I've got to the counting down hours stage now. Done all the work I normally do, emails to respond to have been very quiet compared to the rest of the week... And as I'm typing, We have the possibility of two driver inductions. Last appointment 3PM (its normally 4pm but not one chance of these drivers keeping me past 5pm) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I popped out this morning and got back just before midday. My grandson was asking if it was bath and bed time yet. It's going to be a long day for him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
